If a person’s eyes are the windows to their soul, then actual windows must be the eyes … to the outside world? redecorating options? exciting retail opportunities?
As we approach the end of another calendar year, some of us may reflect with the windows to our souls, but the looking back is probably more metaphorical. Today, though, we consider a year’s worth of very literal windows. It was shocking the number of glass-paned pictures that piled up in the ol’ photo log for 2023—so many that we could have filled multiple blog posts worth, but we decided to stick to the greatest hits.
The windows of homes are here—specifically row houses, for which sidewalk-facing windows have always served as tiny sets for dramas and expression—but also retail storefronts, industrial buildings, and one cemetery crypt.
There’s a term (which I cannot recall) for displays that unintentionally become works of art. Got a few of those in your collection.
